Where to buy acetone

[PETERTHEEATER]

Can anyone tell me where in the province I can buy a small quantity of ACETONE. I need half a litre.

 

I have tried various paint stores without luck but suspect that it may be available in a bottle or can labelled only in Thai.

 

What is the Thai name for the chemical ACETONE?

 

Thanks in anticipation......

It is used as nail polish remover. Can buy a reasonably big bottle from places selling nail polish.

Thanks to both. The products sold as nail varnish remover contain acetone but, also, other additives which contaminate it. I'm looking for straight unadulterated acetone.

Are you making meth?

Acetone isn't sold in Thailand because of being a component in meth, as another poster said.

 

I had to remove silicone remnants and had to bring mine from abroad.

Thanks, no,  don't want it for illicit purposes just as a cleaning agent for a one-time construction product.

 

I considered bringing some from abroad but airline regulations prohibit the carriage on passenger flights of flammable liquids........you brought yours overland.....
